  • Activity Log: Track all account activities, including adding/removing users, creating metrics, deleting dashboards, and more.
  • Active User Session: Monitor who’s accessing your account and where they are doing it from.
  • Login Records: Review successful and failed login attempts to detect unauthorized access.
  • Forced SSO (Single Sign-On): Ensure a more secure login experience through mandatory SSO for authorized users.

Advanced Security settings is available for purchase as an add-on to Account Owners and Admins on Starter, Professional, and Growth plans. Users on Premium plans will have access to all settings as part of their plan.

New in Databox Analytics: Benchmarks

We added a new Benchmarks feature to the Databox Analytics app. With the Benchmarks feature, users can compare just about any metric in their account against competitors. And:

  • Create cohorts by applying filters like industry, company type, company size, and annual revenue to browse benchmark data based on what matters most to them.
  • Save their most important Benchmarks so they can see in which directions their metrics are moving.
  • Compare Benchmarks to the previous period to track how their performance changes over time.
  • Quickly see how they outrank competitors with color-coded charts – red when they're below the median, and green when they’re ahead.

Benchmarks are available on Growth and Premium plans

NEW: REST API and 30+ Custom API Integrations Available Now in Databox

4 years ago

Pull in data right from within our interface without a 3rd party service.

For starters, we are happy to introduce 30+ Custom API Integrations to help you pull data and create custom metrics on your own (or with the help of our experienced team).

Our custom API Integrations replaces the need for tools like Zapier or Integromat—this means you no longer have to maintain these tools (less logins to track) or pay for them.

Connecting a Custom API integration to Databox is relatively simple. Just log in to the tool from within our interface using OAuth, or by entering your API key from the tool.

Once you do that, you will see a new interface where you can pull data from the other tool’s API and then build custom metrics from the data.

New: Weekly Metric Performance Digest

You can now get a weekly digest of how your most relevant metric is trending, delivered directly into your inbox.

This is a great way for every individual team member to keep an eye on their critical KPIs. You can get the Weekly Metric Performance Digest email for your selected KPIs set up quickly today, and then check the Metric Detail Page for additional information if the numbers require it.

Depending on which data you want to see, you can set it up for last week and get an e-mail every Monday, or for current week and get it on Friday. There are also additional customization options.

The best part is that the email puts your data into context so that you can compare whether your KPIs are trending up or if further effort is needed to get them where they need to be.

Introducing Databox Metrics Details Page

4 years ago
Introducing Databox Metrics Details Page

Until now, a metric had to be added to a dashboard in order to view its data. This meant the occasional guess-and-check work to ensure you were choosing the right KPI to track.

Metric Details Page has changed that.

You can now see additional data for each metric by clicking on it. This helps you get insights into each metric you are currently tracking, without adding it to a Dashboard first.

In addition-

You can see an overview of the metric performance over pre-defined time periods-

  • Previous month
  • Week to Date
  • Month to date
  • Year to date

All you need to do is go to the Metrics page, hover over any metric, and click on the “View Details” button.
